Plastic people of the galaxy

Plastic Crimewave Sound are the brainchild of Chicago psych connoisseur and Galactic Zoo proprietor Steve Krakow - aka Plastic Crimewave. Also aboard: Raspberry Kidd, Skog Device and Baron Von Echo. The band has "specialized in face-melting acid punk since 2001." I dare suspect their CD collections would have an unseemly amount of overlap with my own. I missed some of their set (and all of local opener Four'n'Giv'r's) since I had to pedal home, but what I did witness was indeed acidic, face-melting and punky. Also kind of rough on the microphone stand.

About Me

I'm an inveterate show-goer and photographer from Ottawa, Canada, and take copious pictures of live shows, most of which can be seen here on my blog or on Flickr. You can also follow me on Twitter, or on Tumblr. Past show and music reviews can also be found at Penny Black Music.
